twenty-nine
When Bao Liang ran out of the residential building, he didn't have the slightest joy of victory, all he could think about was his sister's hospitalization fee, which came to naught. That afternoon, he bowed his head and was speechless in the face of the doctor's questioning, and his mind was so confused that he had no idea.
The doctor probably thought that his appearance was really pitiful, and he didn't press too hard with words, and said loosely: You should hurry up and think of a way, anyway, your sister has now reached a critical period, and the treatment plan should be decided as soon as possible. Bao Liang could only nod his head, and could only express his gratitude to the doctor for his leniency. But no matter how lenient the hospitalization fee is, he can't afford not to pay it, where should he find this money?
That night, the doctor still gave my sister a hanging bottle as usual, and the hanging bottle was still injected with antipyretic, anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs as usual. Bao Liang watched the nurse push the exquisitely packaged liquid into the hanging bottle one by one, and he couldn't tell whether he was anxious or grateful.
My sister slept.
Bao Liang went home.
Cook dinner first when you get home.
Lei Lei has finished school and is reviewing his homework at home, and many questions in his homework have to be asked to Bao Liang, and Bao Liang mechanically answers them one by one, and he is actually missing an inch in his heart.
The meal was ready, and as soon as it was served, Lei Lei was the first to hear it, and someone knocked on the door. Bao Liang opened the door and looked at it, and to his surprise, Uncle Wang from the old cadre of the Provincial Public Security Department was standing at the door. And behind Uncle Wang, there was another person, tall and burly, looking familiar, but Bao Liang couldn't remember who his surname was for a while.
Uncle Wang came in uninvited, and complained: "You have to climb the eighth floor as soon as you come to this place, and a person of my age has to rest twice in the middle to climb up." Hey, Baoliang, do you recognize this person? β
Bao Liang looked at the man head-on, and the man shouted first:
"Baoliang!"
ββ¦β¦ Yu, Uncle Yu! β
Bao Liang recognized it, this burly man was his father's former comrade-in-arms, the younger uncle of the Jianning Criminal Investigation Brigade.
Less than the appearance of his uncle, Bao Liang was more emotional than kind. Uncle Xiao is like the source of a river, and from that source, the fate of the Baoliang family becomes unpredictable. To this day, until he and Lei Lei were together in this humble hut, and at this moment when Uncle Xiao, who was also full of vicissitudes of life, was speechless, this river, full of whirlpools and turns, did not reach its final destination.
Uncle Wang from the old cadre and Lei Lei, who was standing at the door of the bedroom staring at him in a daze, made an affectionate sentence: "Lei Lei just got out of school, how are you doing your homework now?" β
Lei Lei didn't say anything, and Bao Liang urged: "Lei Lei, call Grandpa Wang." β
Lei Lei shouted: "Grandpa Wang." β
Bao Liang looked at Uncle Xiao and said, "It's called Grandpa Yu." β
Lei Lei called: "Grandpa Yu." β
Lei Lei may have felt that the way his uncle looked at his grandfather was different from that of Grandpa Wang. Uncle and Grandpa Yu seem to have known each other for a long time and have known each other for a long time, but, as if they had quarreled before, they are still a little restrained and resentful.
And that Grandpa Wang also seemed to see the desire between Grandpa Yu and his uncle, he took the initiative to break the embarrassment, and shouted at his uncle: "Baoliang, where are you eating, let's go into the house and sit!" β
The uncle was relieved from the cramped situation and let them into the bedroom. This bedroom also doubles as a living room and dining room, with a small table and two wooden chairs, all in one place for reception and dinner.
A simple dinner had just been set on the small table, and his uncle asked Lei Lei to take it to the kitchen to eat it himself, and then invited the two guests to sit down on the chairs, while he himself sat on the edge of the bed opposite.
The three of them sat down, and Uncle Yu said first: "Baoliang, you have really grown up, if you meet you on the street, I will definitely not dare to recognize it." β
Bao Liang said, "Ah. β
After this answer, all three fell silent. Uncle Wang had no choice but to break the embarrassment again and let go of his hearty voice:
"Baoliang, I heard that your sister is sick, Director Yu came over from Jianning today to take a look, he still has urgent matters to rush back tonight, otherwise he will want to go to the hospital tomorrow to see your sister."
Uncle Yu took this with a gesture, he took out a few bundles of money from his leather bag and put them on the table. The money was still sealed with a bank seal, and Bao Liang counted it with his eyes, and it was 50,000. Uncle Yu suddenly took out so much money, which really scared Bao Liang.
"This money was brought by your father to me for your sister's treatment. Your dad is now, with me. β
"My dad?"
Bao Liang almost couldn't believe that his father would take the initiative to contact him in this way, and he couldn't believe that his father would take out the money to treat his sister's illness.
"My dad is in Jianning?"
"Yes. He has returned to Jianning and has been living at my house. Uncle Yu said, "Your father is in very poor health, and my wife and my mother can take care of him at home." He returned the small courtyard where he lived in the provincial capital to the Public Security Department, got a little money, and was ready to buy back the small courtyard that your family used to live in on the edge of the Jianhe River. When people are old, they still want to return to their roots, and they are still the best adapters to the place where they lived. Now that he heard that your sister was sick, he took a little money out and asked me to come and see you. Your dad said that if you don't have enough money, let you call me again. Is your sister feeling better now? β
As soon as Bao Liang replied, "It's better......" His voice choked up. He held back his breath deeply, but he couldn't suppress a heartfelt sob: "My dad, he ...... Is he still thinking about us......"
"He's still thinking about you." Uncle Yu said, "No matter what, you are all his children. But your dad is not in good health, and he used to have a little knot with your sister. When people get old, their minds are more fragile, more stubborn, and they can't withstand stimulation, and there are some things that make it difficult for him to turn back. Baoliang, you are a very filial child, you should understand your father. You are now grown up and mature, but your father is old, and the old man is like a child, both mentally and behaviorally. When the children grow up, they have to coax the old people like children. The character of the old man is sometimes more stubborn and naΓ―ve than that of a child. β
Uncle Wang echoed on the side: "Baoliang, I'm getting old too." If you're not at a certain age, you really can't understand it. When people are old, they can't climb the eighth floor on two legs at first. And then here," Uncle Wang pointed to his head, "I've used it all my life, and I'm tired of using it." You have to be as patient with us as you did with Lei Lei now, and like your parents did with you when you were a child. Being patient is because you are loving, do you love your dad? β
Bao Liang nodded with tears in his eyes, and he said, "I love my dad, and I know now that my dad loves us too." He just beat and scolded again, and he still remembered that we were his children, and if any of us was sick, he still cared for it......"
Bao Liang's tears are so simple and pure, just like between parents and children, no matter how complex the contradictions and entanglements, when it comes to the root, they are still simple and pure. There are really fewer and fewer simple and pure things in this world, so they are more precious and more beautiful...... Uncle Wang, who is approaching old age, and Uncle Yu, who is in the prime of life, also wet their eyes because of this, and they are all relieved.
When Bao Liang sent Uncle Wang away, Uncle Yu left, he called Lei Lei out of the kitchen and told him to say goodbye to his grandfather. No matter how much the two elders tried to dissuade them, Bao Liang insisted on sending them down to the eighth floor. His reverence was motivated by the joy of being remembered by his father again, and by gratitude to his two uncles.
Bao Liang sent them away, and returned to the eighth floor, where Lei Lei was standing at the table, looking at the stacks of banknotes. Perhaps Lei Lei had never seen bundles of banknotes, so he asked Bao Liang with a curious face:
"Uncle, is this money?"
Bao Liang sat down, took Lei Lei in his arms, and said, "This is money, this is the money sent by my grandfather, specifically for my mother's treatment and for Lei Lei's education." β
With the money in hand, Bao Liang took Lei Lei out that night to McDonald's not far away to drink a chocolate milkshake.
Lei Lei was very happy, and he couldn't get enough of the milkshake, although he had already eaten dinner, but Bao Liang bought him another fried chicken wing, and watched him eat it carefully.
On the way home, they walked along the river. The surface of the river has just frozen, but you can see that the river is still alive under the thin ice. They walked through the woods on the bank of the river, and there were scattered dead leaves under their feet, and Lei Lei deliberately stepped on them, to hear the hoarse sound of breaking. He suddenly raised his face and asked, "Uncle, is that grandfather a good person or a bad person?" "It's hard to ask a good conscience.
Bao Liang said: "Grandpa is a good person. How can the bad guys give money to their mother and Lei Lei. β
Lei Lei asked: "What about grandpa, grandpa is a good guy and a bad guy?" β
Bao Liang didn't know how to answer, he said: "After that, my uncle will tell Lei Lei all the stories of his grandfather and grandfather, and Lei Lei will know when he listens to it." β
Lei Lei was anxious: "When will it be in the future, will you wait until tomorrow?" β
Bao Liang smiled: "No, when Lei Lei looks as tall as his uncle, his uncle will tell Lei Lei." Not only the stories of grandpa and grandfather, but also the stories of father and mother, as well as the stories of uncle himself, all told to Lei Lei! At that time, Lei Lei thought to himself, who is the good guy and who is the bad guy. β
With this 50,000 yuan, Bao Liang has a lot of confidence in curing his sister's illness. When he went to the hospital to pay the money, the hospital received 10,000 yuan. The other money Baoliang calculated, he had to return the money he had borrowed in the past to Fei Fei first.
On this morning, Bao Liang came home from the night shift and made some of his sister's favorite food to take to the hospital. He had just walked out of the building with a thermos jar filled with hot soup when he was stopped by two men on the way.
The two men came up and asked, "You are Lu Baoliang, please come with us, I have something to find you." β
Bao Liang thought they were plainclothes for the public security, so he didn't pay much attention to them at first, but just habitually asked: "Where are you from, what are you looking for me?" But immediately he noticed that the shape and tone of the two men were not like plain clothes, but like ruffians.
"What have you been causing trouble lately, you have to ask yourself!"
"I didn't cause any trouble......"
Before Bao Liang's words fell, he had already received a stick on his back. Bao Liang was knocked to the ground, and the insulated tank in his hand also fell out. The insulated tank fell on the hard ground with a dull cracking sound. It turned out that there were more than two of them, and after Bao Liang fell to the ground, he realized that there were two men behind him, each holding a short stick, apparently drawn from a leather jacket. Bao Liang didn't need to think about it to think that these people must be from Lao Qiu's gang. When he got up from the ground, the four people had already surrounded him, and from their careless movements and expressions, it could be seen that they must have thought that Bao Liang was outnumbered, and could only cry and beg to surrender, none of them expected that Bao Liang would dare to jump at one of them when he just got up and his center of gravity was not stable, that kind of determination and courage to fight to the death, almost without any brewing and hesitation.
Bao Liang's speed and the opponent's light enemy make the disparity in strength no longer determine the victory. A man with a short stick in his hand was knocked down by Bao Liang after Hazelnut actually missed, although he and Bao Liang only rolled on the ground once to break free, but Bao Liang happened to roll in front of the short stick. Bao Liang, who had a short stick, suddenly became murderous, and instead of retreating, he attacked. The four men were quickly dispersed by this short stick of crazy slashing, and each of them could not form a joint force. Some people began to watch from afar on the street, some people were calling the police with their mobile phones, and those guys fled to the streets and streets without any intention of fighting, and the onlookers gathered around to check the injuries on Bao Liang's face, and Bao Liang threw hazelnuts to look at his newly bought soup can.
The soup was broken, the soup splashed on the roadside, and even the fragrance had drifted away with the wind, and there was not a star left.
Since the person who beat him was sent by Lao Qiu, Bao Liang thought that he should hurry up and pay off all the money he owed to Fei Fei.
But when I arrived at the hospital that day, my sister's bed was empty, and when I asked the patients in the same room, I learned that my sister had a heart problem and had just been pushed to the emergency room. Bao Liang hurriedly went to the doctor, and the doctor told Bao Liang that his sister's kidneys, heart and lungs were failing, and she had been put on a ventilator and was doing her best to save her, so Bao Liang should not worry. How could Bao Liang not be in a hurry, he threw his hands on the doctor's desk and begged loudly: Doctor, you give her good medicine, I have money now, really, my dad brought me money, you have to cure my sister no matter what...... The doctor said don't worry, don't worry, we will definitely do our best, it's not a question of money or not.
At noon, my sister came out of the emergency room, still delirious, and was temporarily transferred to the critical care ward. But from the doctor's tone, I can hear that my sister's condition is basically stable and there is no major problem. Bao Liang breathed a sigh of relief and asked the doctor if the 10,000 yuan he paid yesterday was enough. The doctor went to inquire about the situation again and suggested that he pay another 10,000 yuan tomorrow. Your sister's illness is difficult to predict now, and you may have to rescue it when it happens, and the drugs used in the rescue are usually more expensive, and your family members should know this.
Bao Liang didn't wait for tomorrow, he went home immediately, took out another 10,000 yuan and returned to the hospital, all of which were handed over to the hospital's account. After paying the money, he went to the doctor in charge of his sister's ward, and the doctor was about to go home from work, and Bao Liang told him that he had paid another 10,000 yuan, so that the doctor could not give his sister good medicine.
The doctor was a little moved, and seriously promised to take good care of his sister, and also promised to give an account to the doctor on the night shift. Bao Liang was relieved at this time, and went to the critical care ward to see his sister again, and when he came out of the hospital, he suddenly thought, should he stuff a red envelope for the doctor himself?
He didn't get much rest during the day, and when he worked the night shift at night, Bao Liang was a little sleepy. Fortunately, there were no guests in the club at night, and several staff members were there, and most of the time they were idle, stunned or napping.
It was late in the morning.
At half past seven in the morning, when the night shift was about to end, the club's duty desk received a phone call, saying that he was looking for Baoliang. Bao Liang rarely made a personal phone call to class, let alone early in the morning. He jumped on his chest to answer the phone, thinking to himself that it must not be from the hospital. The result was contrary to his expectations, and it was Lei Lei's voice that came out of the phone.
Bao Liang didn't have a phone at home, and this was Lei Lei's school time, so Bao Liang was full of doubts as soon as he answered the phone, and asked Lei Lei where he was.
Lei Lei's voice was quite normal, he said Uncle, I was on my way to school, and an uncle came to take me to school, and he asked me to call you and let me tell you that I was with him.
Bao Liang had a little foreboding, and he asked Lei Lei, "Which uncle?" Who's with you, you call that uncle to listen to the phone! β
A man's voice soon came from the phone, first laughing, the laughter was short, and then there was an affectionate greeting: "Baoliang, I haven't gotten off work yet, it's hard enough to make money!" β
Bao Liang heard the voice familiar, but he couldn't think of who it was for a while, so he asked, "May I ask who you are?" β
The other party laughed again, and after laughing, he said, "I can't even hear it, I'm Lao Qiu!" β
Bao Liang's head buzzed loudly, his scalp seemed to have countless pins and needles, and his voice suddenly went out of control, and he roared in an octave up:
"You let him go, surnamed Qiu, what are you looking for me, you let go of Lei Lei!"
The colleagues next to the duty desk were all shocked, and the guests who came to the club for breakfast also stopped, and the club manager who had just gone to work ran over and whispered to Bao Liang: "Bao Liang! What's the matter with you! But at this time, Bao Liang had already thrown away the phone and ran to the elevator with a pale face.
The manager saw that Bao Liang was nervous, and repeatedly comforted the guests and apologized, and when he chased to the elevator hall, the passenger elevator that Bao Liang was riding happened to be closed. According to the regulations, the staff is absolutely not allowed to take the passenger elevator, the manager shouted, but it was too late.
It was impossible for Bao Liang to change his clothes in the staff locker room, and he ran out of the hotel door and onto the street with a straight suit. The people on the street were all dressed in cotton and fur, and when they saw Bao Liang so thin, they were all curious. Bao Liang frantically ran towards Lei Lei's way to school, and when he was about to reach the school gate, he saw Lao Qiu and Lei Lei standing on the side of the road waiting for him.
Lao Qiu didn't hurt Lei Lei, but the school gate was far away, but he didn't let Lei Lei go again. When Bao Liang arrived, Lei Lei said anxiously: Uncle, I'm almost late...... Before Bao Liang could answer, he pulled Lei Lei from Lao Qiu's hand and hugged him in his arms.
"Let's go, uncle will take you to school!"
Bao Liang took Lei Lei's hand and walked towards the school, and Lao Qiu and his two thugs followed with a pleasant expression. Bao Liang glanced back at him, and he smiled at Bao Liang. Lei Lei looked at Bao Liang's shrunken clothes and trousers, and asked strangely: Uncle, why aren't you cold? Bao Liang said: It's okay, you just don't get cold.
Sent to school, Bao Liang kept watching Lei Lei walk into the school gate, and he shouted at Lei Lei's back: "Wait for me in the school after school, I'll pick you up!" β
Lao Qiu and Bao Liang's "negotiation", not to go to the tea house, not to the bar, just stand at the gate of the school, on the cold street.
Lao Qiu said: "The accounts of the two of us should also be settled." You stole my woman, you hurt me, and yesterday you hurt my brother, whether you give money or life, you don't want to mention it in black and white. I can't let my brothers laugh at me. β
Bao Liang shivered with cold, and squeezed out a sentence with his upper and lower teeth fighting: "There is no one who wants money to die." β
Lao Qiu smoked, and Bao Liang felt a little warm when he looked at the smoke. Lao Qiu smiled and said: "I don't want your life, I have heard Feifei tell you all your stories, your life is too cheap, and you don't think it's worth it." I want the life of this child of yours. Lao Qiu smiled again: "Actually, it's not fatal, I'll find trouble with him." I asked people to give them big ears every day, every day, it's not difficult. Let this child be afraid of people and dare not go out on the street. Unless you don't do anything, stay with him every day. β
Bao Liang said, "If you dare to beat him, I will beat you." Don't look at the number of people you have, if you dare to thunder and thunder, don't go out on the street alone in the future! β
Lao Qiu said: "You really can. Or maybe Fei Fei likes you. But I'm telling you, if you really don't want this kid to be bullied, you should be realistic, and you won't have to live a life. Besides, I won't get any benefit from beating you with a missing arm and a broken leg, so you might as well give money. If you take 50,000 yuan, all the things I just said will be smoothed out, how about it? It doesn't matter if you don't have money, I can help you earn money, you have money to contribute, and if you don't have money, you can contribute. β
Bao Liang said: "I don't have the ability to earn money except for work. β
Lao Qiu said: "Fei Fei said that you like *** very much, I have that thing, if you want it, you can get it from me." I can give you a hundred grains first, and you can use it yourself, or you can pour it out. You don't know where to pour it out. Anyway, one hundred and fifty yuan a pill, the price is fair, pour it out, let's open three or seven, pour a hundred grains and you can earn four thousand five. You've done a good job, and it won't be long before you'll be able to pay me back. If you still want to earn, just keep doing it, and if you don't want to earn, let's say goodbye and go our own way. β
Bao Liang said, "I know what you are doing, aren't you afraid that I will sue you?" β
Lao Qiu said: "I'm not afraid, when the time comes, you won't take the goods from me, what will you sue me?" Before you sue, you should think about it, whether you and your child still want to stay in the provincial capital. Now you can find someone to unload one of your arms for 5,000 yuan, cut you off, and the people will fly away after taking the money, and the police will have nowhere to find them. This kind of work is labor-saving and fast, and there are many people who want to do it! β
When Lei Lei got out of school that evening, Baoliang waited at the school gate early. Lei Lei came out of the school and saw Bao Liang, and immediately happily took his homework book from his school bag to show Bao Liang to see. In the homework book, the teacher stamped Lei Lei with three small red flags, which was of course a symbol of commendation. But Lei Lei may have seen it, and his conscience was absent-minded, so he took a look at it and helped him stuff his homework book back into his school bag, and then took his hand and quickly left the school gate.
They walked very fast, Lei Lei used to go to the street with Bao Liang, and the two always talked and laughed, but today the uncle seemed to be full of worries, looking nervous, looking forward and backward all the way, Lei Lei asked him something, and he answered extremely sloppily. Instead of going straight home, they went to the McDonald's restaurant on the way, where his uncle bought a milkshake and burger for Lei Lei to sit in a corner seat and eat it. Not long after, a woman came, and sat at the next table with her uncle and whispered about things. Lei Lei couldn't hear what they were talking about, but he saw that both sides were very emotional, especially the uncle, who was red and red when he spoke, and the green tendons on his head jumped out. The aunt was made to cry by her uncle's words, and while crying and arguing with her uncle, their deliberately suppressed argument was drowned out by the noise and music around them, so that Lei Lei could only watch them as if he were watching a pantomime, and could only watch them in a blank manner, making all kinds of incomprehensible facial expressions.
After Lei Lei finished eating, he sat quietly in the corner, and his uncle noticed Lei Lei's gaze, and asked him in a loud voice, "Have you finished eating?" Lei Lei nodded. The uncle asked again, "Are you full?" Lei Lei nodded again, he saw his uncle turn his face and say something to the aunt, so he ended the conversation, got up and pulled Lei Lei away. The aunt sat in her place and didn't move, and when Lei Lei walked in front of her, she smiled at Lei Lei with her swollen eyes, and Lei Lei looked back at her, not knowing what to say. He felt a little strange in his heart, because his uncle was pulling him away in a hurry, and he didn't let him say something like "Auntie goodbye" as he used to politely.
When he got home that night, Lei Lei was lying on his desk doing his homework, and his uncle was cooking noodles in the kitchen. After the meal, my uncle let Lei Lei watch TV for half an hour, and said that he would wash his feet and sleep. Lei Lei was not sleepy, but his uncle's expression today was different from the past, he was always frowning and thinking about things, and if there was a smile on his face, he would barely squeeze it out. So Lei Lei didn't dare to disobey, obediently washed his face and feet, before going to bed, his uncle asked him if he brushed his teeth, Lei Lei said he didn't brush, and his uncle said to brush it, and he had to brush his teeth after eating McDonald's.
The bathroom was so small that it could only accommodate Lei Lei alone, and when Lei Lei brushed his teeth, his uncle stood at the door of the bathroom and looked at Lei Lei from the mirror. Lei Lei thought that his uncle was supervising him to brush his teeth, so he brushed hard and seriously, but the uncle in the mirror said something else.
"Lei Lei, my uncle went to the hospital to see my mother today, my mother was very sick yesterday, but today she is much better, I can talk to my uncle, and my uncle will take you to see my mother again this Sunday, okay?"
Lei Lei nodded at the mirror, with a toothbrush and toothpaste in his mouth, and muttered: "Hmm." β
The uncle said again: "Lei Lei, my uncle may have to change jobs, as soon as we change jobs, we have to move, and as soon as we move, we have to change schools for you." We may have to move to a farther place, and it will be inconvenient to go to this school again. β
Lei Lei's toothbrush stopped, his brain was a little wooden, and he couldn't react for a while. The uncle comforted him and said, "Let's find a better school, and the teachers will definitely like you there." As long as you listen to the teacher and do your homework well, the teacher will definitely like you. β
Lei Lei took the toothbrush out of his mouth, still holding a mouthful of toothpaste in his mouth, and said: "But I am very good with Zhang Dongpei and Li Qiangqiang in our class, we are inseparable, I don't want to change schools." β
My uncle said, "We must change schools, and when you get to the new school, you can still meet new friends, and it will be interesting to make more friends." You hurry up and brush it, and go to bed after brushing. β
The uncle went back to the bedroom, Lei Lei wanted to cry, but he didn't cry, and after rinsing his mouth, he went back to bed, so depressed that he didn't want to speak. The uncle folded the clothes he had taken off and said, "Tomorrow morning, you don't go to school by yourself, your uncle will find an aunt to take you to school, and you will wait at home." β
Lei Lei looked at the wall and did not answer, and his uncle said, "Did you hear that?" Why don't you speak? β
Lei Lei replied in his nose.
Lei Lei didn't want to speak.
My uncle stopped talking.
The whole night until the lights were turned off, no one spoke again.
After turning off the lights, my uncle left.
The night shift is at 10 p.m., and it is generally required to arrive a quarter of an hour early in order to make a handover with the mid-shift employees.
Bao Liang arrived at the hotel at nine o'clock.
He first found Qiao Xiaoou, the foreman of the middle class, and asked her if she could help send Lei Lei to school in the past two days. Qiao Xiaoou once went to Bao Liang's house once, because Bao Liang's sister was released from prison for treatment, the hotel union union sent the trade union members of the club to visit Bao Liang's house with a hardship subsidy of 200 yuan in order to show concern. It was Qiao Xiaoou who came with the trade union members that day, so she had seen Lei Lei and liked Lei Lei very much.
Of course, she also likes Baoliang.
Qiao Xiaoou is a more introverted girl, and no matter how much she likes it, she won't behave particularly explicitly, but Baoliang can still see it, so he never asks her to do something. This time it's really helpless, and Baoliang can't take care of it so much.
As expected, of course Qiao Xiaoou was willing, and agreed to go to Baoliang's house at 7:20 in the morning. Anyway, she didn't come to take over until two o'clock in the afternoon, and she was free all morning, but this matter would affect her lazy sleep in the morning, so Baoliang repeatedly expressed his heartfelt gratitude.
After talking about this matter, Bao Liang went to the manager again to review his gaffe when he answered the phone this morning. When Bao Liang returned to the hotel to change his clothes during the day, he was called to the catering department for a lecture and explained the cause of the incident. The club manager obviously knew that he was doing it for the child, so he had the same attitude as the head of the department, just said a few words about Baoliang, asked not to make an example, and did not investigate further.
That night, the club picked up an event organized by an American company, and Bao Liang was busy until two o'clock in the morning to relax a little. He worked very hard to make up for his mistakes, and he was so tired that his face turned pale and almost collapsed. These days, he goes to see his sister during the day, has to go to work at night, and he has to cook for Lei Lei, and his sleep time has to be stitched, all of which are pieced together. Yesterday morning, I wore a thin suit and confronted Lao Qiu and others outside, and then I had a little cold. He asked for some medicine in the hotel infirmary and doubled the dose, but the cold and heat in his body did not come out.
It wasn't until two o'clock in the evening that the guests had left to clean up the inside and outside of the club, and it was already five o'clock in the morning. Bao Liang was so sleepy that he lay on the table and wanted to take a nap, but his mind was always thinking about the things of the day, and the abnormal expression on his sister's face yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon, he went to see his sister, who was still confused, but occasionally had a moment of sobriety, and even the doctors and nurses were overjoyed, and his sister actually talked to Bao Liang about her parents, which my sister rarely talked about in the past. Especially for her father, my sister still has lingering palpitations and resentment, and she is unhappy when she talks about it, but on this sunny afternoon, my sister actually took the initiative to ask her father.
"Before, when you were with your dad, did your dad mention me?"
My sister's breath was faint, but the words in her mouth were surprisingly clear. For the purpose of comfort, Bao Liang hesitated for a moment before saying:
"Mention, Dad often said that he didn't know where Baozhen went, and he didn't know if Baozhen still wanted to go home."
My sister smiled, shyly.
"Actually, I was very homesick and wanted to go home to see, but when I thought of my father's face, I was scared. Besides, my dad must not recognize the right tiger, and I can't come back. Since I married Quan Hu and had Lei Lei with him, I can only live with him with all my heart. I just thought, I'm sorry for my mom. β
After my sister finished speaking, she closed her eyes, and fell asleep, and after sleeping for a while, she woke up again, and when she woke up, she continued what she had just said, "I should go and see my mother." When I'm well, I should go to my mother's grave to see my mother. I'm going to die in the future, so I'll bury myself with my mother. Dad will die in the future, so let's join us. You can't be together in life, but when you die, you can get together, and the family is reunited......"
Bao Liang's tears were about to fall, but he had to put on a sneer: "Early, don't keep talking about death, just think about what you want to do and what you want to eat when you get well......"
My sister said, "After I get well, I want to go back to our Jianning hometown to have a look, and I don't know if our yard is still there." After a big turn, I still think our yard is good. There is a mountain right out of the door, and the mountain is next to the river, and the air is so good. I still dream about our family. In the past, I always wanted to go out, but now I always want to go home, and I don't know what my dad thinks......"
Bao Liang just wanted to tell his sister: "Dad has gone back to his hometown to live...... but halfway through the words, he found that his sister fell asleep again.
Bao Liang fell asleep too, lying on the edge of his sister's bed, and soon fell asleep.
He didn't know how long he slept like this yesterday afternoon, and when he woke up, his sister was still asleep with her face up. Before he left the hospital to pick up Lei Lei at school, he used the public phone outside the hospital to dial Fei Fei's mobile phone number.
